Just press record crashing on my Apple Watch

watchOS and Apple Watch Apps

I have an Apple Watch and have been using the Just Press Record app for my diary.
Now, for some reason, sometimes it will not open on the watch when I want it to, not from the dock, the complication or the list of apps.
I don’t understand why this happened. I hope I don’t have to go so far as to resetting my watch.
I love this app and have lots of content on it wich is great.
I just do not understand why it is crashing on me. First I get a blank screen and then it goes onto yet another blank screen and then I am back to where I were before.
Sometimes it opens correctly, but when pressing record and then record what I want to record I pause the recording and my watch locks for a while the way it should. However, when I press on the watch to open it, the app crashes and have stopped the recording and the recording is gone.
I am using an Apple Watch Sport Series Zero 38 Milimeters.
I have used this app reliably for a very long time and I have lots of space on my watch. I therefore know that it is not because of lack of space.
I use this every day.

If you hold the digital crown and the side button in together for 40 seconds Or so, your watch will do a full restart, but you will not lose any settings.

This often fixes problems like this.

Also, to force quit an app hold in the side button until you hear the word cancel, then release it, then hold in the crown, until you are returned to the watch face.

Maybe one of these techniques will fix your problem.
